The simple truth is that Science North pursues revenue from as many sources as we can to keep admission fees as affordable as possible, because science should be accessible to all.

We rely on you, the great people in our community, to help us to continue providing quality science education, experiences, and community outreach year-after-year.

Come stop by A&W and support our cause!

Science North thanks A&W Sudbury

and YOU for your support!!

The food bank has just compleated there new warehouse and with your help, we can help fill it up. The food bank does a lot of good for our community and we try to support them whenever the need arises, and the need is now, going into the holiday season. A big thank-you ahead of time to all who will come by and to all who have helped us in the past.

Suzanne and Paul Gaudreault want to help their community. One brick at a time.

The owners of Sudbury’s three A & W locations launched a Root Beer Cheer campaign Thursday.

Customers can buy a paper brick for $1 to support the Sudbury Food Bank, which will go up on their walls.

At the end of the campaign, the owners will double the amount raised and donate it to the food bank.

“It’s a local charity. It gives back to the customers that supported us through the years,” said Suzanne Gaudreault, of the food bank.

The couple started the campaign, which runs until the middle of July, after going to a press conference for the food bank’s new location, which should be ready for use this fall.

“My husband and I left there going, ‘We really need to do more.’ We were amazed by the numbers. Fourteen hundred people a month use the food bank. We decided we needed to do something to involve our staff,” Gaudreault said.

The couple hopes to raise a minimum of $10,000 this summer, which they’ll double.

“I know it’s doable. I know that when customers find out this money stays here in Sudbury, they’ll really get onboard,” Gaudreault said. “Our mandate is not to be able to see outside. All of our windows will be covered with bricks.”

The owners have seen a positive reaction from the community.

“Our employees are just so excited about it. They actually approached me and asked if we could do a payroll deduction,” Gaudreault said. “It says (the community) is awfully generous. They’ve supported my husband and I … I think that anytime we can give back, we need to.”

Gaudreault sees a connection between her business and the Food Bank.

“We’re in the food business. I just think it’s a good fit. You can’t go anywhere without food. It’s such a bare necessity,” she said. “We just didn’t know that in this day and age (the Food Bank) would be used so much.

“There’s such a big need for it. That there’s so many people here, in such a prosperous community that need the food bank, we were quite astonished.”
